Hi,
I'm modelling in Ansys APDL a circular plate with a circular hole in its center loaded by a unitary compressive load (as in the brazilian disk test). I'm modelling only one fourth of the geometry. In the evaluation of the SIF I have a difference of one order of magnitude (0.019301 of Ansys vs 0.001914 of the analytical results). Can anybody tell me what could be the mistake?
